You were returning from the Harrisburg Holiday Parade when you heard the squeaking from your engine and smelled the burning rubber.
Those are two signs that your serpentine belt needs to be replaced.
The serpentine belt is a long rubber belt that provides power to many parts of your car, including your alternator, power steering pump, air conditioning and sometimes the water pump, according to allstate.com. This belt plays a crucial role in ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of various engine components. Without a properly functioning serpentine belt, these vital components would cease to operate, leading to potential engine overheating, loss of power steering, electrical system failure, and an overall breakdown of the vehicle. Regular inspection and maintenance of the serpentine belt are imperative to avoid unexpected failures and costly repairs.
In essence, the serpentine belt is a linchpin in the intricate machinery of your car, and its proper functioning is integral to the overall reliability and performance of your vehicle.
The serpentine belt should be regularly inspected and replaced at about 90,000 miles.
But the belt can break before then. Among the symptoms of a broken serpentine belt, allstate.com says, are a check engine light or battery light that is lit, an A/C or power steering that isn’t working, or an overheating engine.
You can get your serpentine belt replaced at the Meineke Car Care Center on Paxton Street in Harrisburg.
